PokerStars: Fix This or Get Boycotted.

[boohaa12]

ok maybe not boycott..... Whats the harm in PS making the player, in this example the SB(hero), just check it as if on "checkfold".... then if the Button bets, the hero folds....

NExt hand hero sits out, if hes not back....

I only 3-4 table but this can happen from time to time, and its just annoying...

blunts, bathroom, etc...

ps, dont raise KQoff in first position =P

Tom,

You suck at mouse-clicking. I hope Lee flips the DOOM SWITCH on your ass.

I am glad Stars does this rather than having you check. If you are playing so many tables that you are timing out, you are slowing the game down and making it less fun for everyone else. It is good that they have set up a system to encourage people to actually pay attention and act when it is their turn.

What happened to your time bank?

Then you are playing too many tables.


Lots of people who were 4-tabling before might have been doing it on full-ring at 70hds/hr per table.
On the high-speed 6-max tables it is 150 hds/hr on some tables.
If you need to cut it down to 2 or 3 tables in order to keep up then do that.


Also, some people were arguing in a previous thread that the hands were going TOO fast this making it too tough to play on as many tables as they wanted to.

LOL Contradictaments

That's a good idea; did you email them (in a constructive manner?); maybe they will agree too. At Planet Poker in 1999 it was much worse, there one would be folding a hand at the showdown (after all action) if one did not show the hand but pushed the "muck" button as one did at Paradise Poker at that time.

This happened to me the other night.... The guy in the hand said he hit the flush on the river.... I don't know if he was just sticking it to me because he didn't believe me or what.... He tried to claim he had a 4 and was worried about his kicker.... I sent Pokerstars an email, with the HH, but they said there was nothing they could do, but good luck at the tables.... I definitely undertstand why they do it, and I should of been quicker to act, but I just wanted to post because of the type of hand and how it went down...
